OK, time to ask a few dumb questions ...
First off, we (+1 and me) are heading off for our first "big adventure" van trip end next month. We are hoping to do a trip from home in Tamworth, through Mungindi, and some back roads to Boulia, thence to Alice Springs, have a few days around there, then return via Yulara/Uluru, Port Augusta, Broken Hill and back home.
Taking the Navara to tug our Goldstream Storm Vacationer van.

So ... questions ...
1. is this the best direction to attack this trip? Would we be better off going the reverse direction, ie out via BH and back via Boulia?
2. Would you consider this trip doable in a 3 week timeframe, allowing for sightseeing and photography?
3. Apart from plenty of fuel/water/food, and standard spares (eg 1 wheel/tyre for each unit) what essentials should we take? Have just gotten a WAECO freezer unit (40Litre) so we can keep stuff cold, and currently experimenting with freezing stuff in made to measure meal sizes that will fit neatly in there.
4. I have obviously forgotten to ask something important, so suggest answers to the questions I forgot, as well!
Cheers
John
